[pct-l] Greetings + Looking for a Partner



Hello!  I've just joined the list.  I'm a 48-year-old attorney and lover of the Sierras who, between his work and family obligations, doesn't hike nearly as much as he'd like to.  It's my dream to hike the PCT, but I can't take much time to do it, so at least for the next several years I'm planning to hike one small section (~ 100 miles) each year.  This year will be my first year; I'll start at Campo and go to Scissors Crossing or Warner Springs, depending on how much time I can take off work.  I'm planning to go in late April or early May, and my wife will feel much better about my trip if I'm with someone else.  Can I hook up with anybody else who's starting north at that time?  I intend to do 12 - 20 miles per day, going light a la Jardine.  Any info about potential hiking partners and about trail conditions, especially water availability, will be much appreciated.
Jonathan Blees.
